To the outsider, Tommy Moore runs the East End, but behind closed doors, his mother is in charge. The family hold sway, and if you mess with them, you’d better watch out. A priest has been caught leaking information to the gangster who rules south of the river, and his treachery, amongst the other traitors in their midst, leaves the family unsettled. One by one, each person is brought to justice—the Moore way—and with the help of two dodgy detectives, they aim to make everything right again in their world. But someone linked to an act of deceit in the past also needs to be punished, except this time it’s a close member of the firm, someone they’d all trusted, someone always in the know. Tommy takes on the job of catching them, getting them to their abandoned gym where he extracts a confession—and he learns a lesson in locking his emotions up tight. The London lot are interwoven, promising to stay on their own patches, but with Kenneth Penny from the south playing games in the background, things promise to turn nasty. Or maybe that should be deadly…
